A financial services startup is planning to launch a new algorithmic trading simulation platform. The platform experiences massive, unpredictable traffic spikes during market hours (9:30 AM9:30\text{ AM} to 4:00 PM4:00\text{ PM} EST) but is virtually idle at night. Additionally, the startup must perform a weekly risk analysis batch job every Sunday, which requires high-performance compute resources for exactly 33 hours and can be interrupted without losing progress. The startup wants to optimize its cost structure by shifting capital expenditures (CapEx) to operating expenditures (OpEx) while maximizing the cost benefits of cloud economics.

Which two AWS billing and architectural strategies will best align with the company's financial goals of reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and leveraging the economic benefits of elasticity? (Select TWO.)

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Designing the trading simulation platform to dynamically scale compute instances up and down using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling based on real-time demand metrics.; Utilizing Amazon EC2 Spot Instances to run the weekly risk analysis batch jobs.

Cevap

The correct strategy involves scaling the trading platform dynamically using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and running the interruptible weekly risk analysis batch jobs on Amazon EC2 Spot Instances.
Leveraging Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling allows the platform to scale dynamically during unpredictable peak market hours and scale down to minimum capacity at night, optimizing operational costs (OpEx) through elasticity. Utilizing Amazon EC2 Spot Instances for the weekly risk analysis batch job is highly cost-effective because the job can tolerate interruptions, letting the startup take advantage of spare AWS capacity at deep discounts.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the platform's traffic pattern and identify the elasticity requirements.
The platform has highly variable demand (9:30 AM9:30\text{ AM} to 4:00 PM4:00\text{ PM} peak, idle at night), indicating a strong need for elasticity to match resource supply with demand.
Elasticity prevents paying for idle resources during off-peak times.
2
Evaluate the weekly risk analysis workload characteristics.
The batch job is weekly, runs for 33 hours, and is interruptible, making it a perfect fit for EC2 Spot Instances.
Spot Instances offer up to 90%90\% cost reduction for fault-tolerant workloads.
3
Assess the financial goal of shifting CapEx to OpEx.
Avoid options that require upfront payments or long-term capacity lock-in (such as 3-Year All Upfront Dedicated Host Reserved Instances).
Upfront reservations behave like capital expenses, reducing financial flexibility.
4
Identify the combinations of decisions that optimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and support elasticity.
Combining Auto Scaling for variable traffic and Spot Instances for interruptible batch jobs maximizes the economic benefits of the cloud.
This combination minimizes runtime costs and eliminates capital expenditures.

An enterprise runs a legacy monolithic application on-premises. The infrastructure costs 500,000annuallyinhardwaredepreciation(capitalexpense),500,000 annually in hardware depreciation (capital expense), 100,000 in data center power and cooling, and $200,000 in dedicated system administration salaries. The application's utilization is highly variable, requiring 80% of total capacity during a 3-month holiday peak, but dropping to just 10% during the remaining 9 months of the year. The company plans to migrate this application to AWS and re-architect it using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and Amazon Aurora. Which of the following best describes the primary economic shift and driver that will yield the greatest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) reduction for this seasonal workload?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Shifting from a capital expense (CapEx) model with fixed capacity to an operating expense (OpEx) model, leveraging elasticity to dynamically scale resources to match the seasonal demand variation, thereby eliminating idle capacity costs during off-peak months.

Cevap

Shifting from a capital expense (CapEx) model with fixed capacity to an operating expense (OpEx) model, leveraging elasticity to dynamically scale resources to match the seasonal demand variation, thereby eliminating idle capacity costs during off-peak months.
The correct option correctly identifies that the primary financial driver is shifting from a Capital Expenditures (CapEx) model to an Operating Expenditures (OpEx) model, combined with leveraging AWS elasticity to dynamically scale down capacity during off-peak times. This directly minimizes the total cost of ownership by eliminating idle resource waste.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the on-premises cost structure and utilization patterns.
The on-premises environment uses a capital expense (CapEx) model with high fixed costs ($500,000 hardware depreciation) sized for peak capacity, resulting in 90% idle capacity for 9 months of the year.
To calculate the potential savings of cloud migration, we must first understand the baseline expenditures and the waste patterns of the legacy infrastructure.
2
Identify the primary economic shift when migrating to AWS.
The company shifts from a CapEx model (upfront hardware investments) to an operating expense (OpEx) model, where they pay only for running resources on a variable basis.
Recognizing the shift from CapEx to OpEx is fundamental to understanding AWS cloud economics.
3
Evaluate the role of elasticity in reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Elasticity allows the application to automatically scale in/out using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling, meaning the company only pays for 80% capacity during the 3-month peak, and drops to 10% capacity for the other 9 months.
Matching supply to demand directly eliminates the cost of idle resources, which is the main source of waste in seasonal on-premises environments.
4
Synthesize the options to select the correct driver.
The option advocating the shift from CapEx to OpEx coupled with elasticity to eliminate off-peak idle costs represents the correct cloud economic principle.
This option correctly applies both the CapEx-to-OpEx shift and the concept of elasticity to address the seasonal business scenario.

A digital publishing company experiences highly unpredictable traffic surges when articles go viral. Previously, the company managed these surges by purchasing and maintaining a permanent array of physical web servers capable of handling peak historic traffic, which cost $25,000\$25,000 per month but operated at a baseline utilization of only 8%8\%. After migrating to AWS, the company decommissioned their physical servers and implemented an Auto Scaling group of EC2 instances. Their monthly AWS bill now varies between $2,000\$2,000 and $18,000\$18,000 depending on actual monthly web traffic. While the financial shift from a fixed monthly cost to a variable bill represents one cloud benefit, which AWS Cloud benefit is directly demonstrated by the elimination of the operational inefficiencies of under-provisioning (outages) and over-provisioning (costly idle servers)?

Cevap: Stop guessing capacity

Cevap

Stop guessing capacity is the correct answer because it directly addresses the elimination of over-provisioning (idle servers) and under-provisioning (outages) by scaling capacity dynamically to match demand.
The correct answer is 'Stop guessing capacity' because the company's dynamic scaling architecture eliminates the inefficiency of over-provisioning (which led to an 8%8\% utilization rate and high idle costs) and under-provisioning (which led to outages during viral surges). By matching compute capacity to real-time traffic, they avoid both operational issues.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the operational challenges described in the scenario.
The publishing company is dealing with under-provisioning (outages during viral traffic surges) and over-provisioning (costly idle physical servers at 8%8\% utilization).
Identifying the core technical problem allows us to map it to the correct AWS Cloud benefit.
2
Differentiate between the financial and operational aspects of the scenario.
The financial transition from fixed to variable cost represents one benefit, but the question asks specifically for the benefit that solves the operational capacity mismatches.
This step prevents falling for the distractor related to Capex/Opex.
3
Match the operational solution (dynamic auto-scaling) to the official AWS Cloud benefits.
The ability to dynamically scale resources to eliminate idle capacity and prevent outages corresponds directly to 'Stop guessing capacity'.
This confirms 'Stop guessing capacity' as the correct answer based on AWS documentation definitions.

A mobile gaming studio, PixelVibe, is migrating its backend multiplayer matchmaking system to AWS. The current application relies on a proprietary on-premises database that requires expensive licensing and custom clustering. The studio decides to migrate the application's code as-is to Amazon EC2, but swaps the underlying database to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL to eliminate licensing costs and benefit from automated clustering. Which migration strategy does this scenario describe?

Cevap: Replatforming

Cevap

Replatforming
The correct strategy is Replatforming because the company is migrating its application code without major changes ('as-is'), but optimizing the database by switching to a fully managed cloud service (Amazon Aurora) to reduce licensing costs and management overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the migration actions performed by the studio.
The application code is migrated without changes (as-is to EC2), but the database is modified to use a managed cloud database service (Amazon Aurora).
This helps determine the extent of modification during migration.
2
Map the analyzed actions to the 6 Rs migration strategies.
Making minor adjustments to optimize the platform (using managed databases) without restructuring the core application code is characteristic of Replatforming.
To distinguish Replatforming from Rehosting (no changes) and Refactoring (significant architecture/code changes).

Anahtar Kavram

Replatforming migration strategy involves moving applications to the cloud with minor optimizations, such as swapping self-hosted components for managed services, without changing the core architecture.
